so far.. heres a pic of the MEPHISTO.. : it will not be released.. Vermona Synth overview.. click to enlarge!!! Der mephisto wird NICHT gebaut werden.. aber vermona arbeiten sicher an einem anderen polysynth..! unklar wann und wo.. aber mephisto ist definitiv gekippt & gecancelled! Vermona MEPHISTO: Klangerzeugung ist vollanalog, 3 diskret „IC-frei“ aufgebaute Sägezahn-Oszillatoren sorgen für fetten Klang. Für den verstimmungsfreien Betriebgibt es DSPs im Mephisto, sie geben eine Sinusschwingung aus, die zu einem Impuls geformt wird, und dieser wiederum synchronisiert das Rücksetzen des vom VCO generierten Sägezahns.

Motif Mini – Yamaha MM6 Mini Mo

Not really Mini, because it has 5 Octaves (so it is quite big to my eyes..) but smaller then the new Motif XS6 name: Yamaha MM6 Mini Mo Absolut keine Idee, wieso er „Mini“ genannt wird, aber verglichen zum „neuen“ Motif ist er abgespreckt.. und hat keinen Sequencer, also ein Synthesizer, keine Workstation.. Daher „mini“.. SRC: http://www.gearjunkies.com/news_info.php?news_id=1672

Line6 Tone Port

looks like the TonePort Keyboard comes very soon? It has 2 VU Meters, Transport Buttons and 4 Controllers @ 3 Octaves .. I do not really get the idea of why the logo rooms wasn’t used by more Knobs, but it looks like a good keyboard (THREE Octaves!) via „hugo“..

Create Digital Music » New Novation Keys: XioSynth, with Step Sequencer, Hybrid Controller/Synth Features

a new Synthesizer and Remote Keyboard in one from Novation – the Xio Synth.. is something like the X-Station but much smaller and less knobs, so it looks very much portable – 2 octave (yes, you are right – I still prefer they would all make 3 octaves..) the Xio has a built in sequencer (!!) – there will be a 49key-version also! – USB connection of course.. and it’s usb powered – alternatively batteries.. so.. it can be used as synth AND remote keyboard in a so called hybrid…
